Thinner than expected, but still manages to sport a somewhat chalky finish-- this is loaded with flavor, and the low viscosity helps to deliver it quickly and efficiently. Problem is, the flavor is more jarring than enjoyable, and doesn't capture the 'satisfying' essence of the Snickers bar at all. You begin with a syrupy-sweet rush of cocoa and faux-peanutty flavor, and end with a persistent, cloying aftertaste that sustains neither of the intended flavors.

Nary a cocoa contingent in this 'mocha' milk-- it drinks like straight coffee milk. I appreciate the creamline base, but it feels arbitrarily 'thickened' here and is a departure from expectations forged over past experiences with similar products. The coffee bit is ok, and it's not off-putting in any particular way-- perhaps it just feels a bit 'empty' after having Conoco View Dairy's excellent chocolate milk.

Appropriately thin and smooth, and a significantly stronger coffee flavor than cocoa flavor. The coffee flavor feels legit but is not one that matches up well with my preferences. I would describe it as a sour sweetness, with a fairly watery yet astringent finish.

Sourish cocoa paired with a strong cooked milk flavor-- admittedly not something that sounds immediately enticing. Texture-wise, it's a tad chalky but otherwise unoffensive-- and as a whole, the enjoyment peaks at the mild satisfaction of a few strong pulls off of the straw.

Unremarkable but gets the job done-- it shades on the bland side of the ledger but at least has portability on its side being a shelf-stable product. There's a slight cooked-milk flavor that isn't particularly distracting-- and ultimately it drinks with facility and ends with a mild astringency. Middle of the road.

By definition, this run-of-the-mill nation-wide, mass-produced, low-fat chocolate milk should be a 5.0-- but somehow it feels criminal to call this average. Maybe my tastes and expectations have evolved slightly, maybe it's taken a turn for the worse. That said, it's super-innocuous, lightly sweet, and carries a slightly earthier than usual cocoa flavor that requires some effort to tease out.

Sweet and chocolaty right off the bat, but hampered by a resounding UHT-twang that is not 'exactly' like, but adjacent to, a fake-butter flavor (compared to a real butter flavor). This quality persists into the aftertaste, and is distractingly unique, but at least memorable.

Thick, sticky, and sweet beyond its means-- if melted, bland vanilla ice cream is your thing, look no further. The bottle is colored brown perhaps to mask the fact that the 'chocolate' milk inside is several shades lighter, and wouldn't register as chocolate to 9 out of 10 blindfolded tasters (unsubstantiated claim).

If ‘bland’ and ‘innocuous’ are two things you seek in a chocolate milk, look no further. It’s recognizable as chocolate milk, and that happens to be its best quality.

Patently average in most flavor regards, and the texture strays from ‘milky’ in favor of ‘syrupy.’ Chances are, there are better options in your local dairy case.

Very prominent cocoa flavor that leans ‘earthy’— and very strongly powdery / chalky feel, that leans….’earthy.’ No issues with the taste— it’s also rather salty that curbs any potential aftertaste woes, but the texture feels too thick for its britches, and the residue-laden end state is reminiscent of the fortified protein drink genre.

Somewhat dull cocoa flavor supported by a competent saltiness, and delivered through a fairly dense, not-quite-milky medium.

Painfully sweet, in a way that marks so many cookies ’n’ cream milks— causing me to postulate that perhaps the two are inseparable, or inevitable. The sweetness lasts well beyond the swallow and devolves to an unwelcome lining that you’ll seek to remedy. Sugar-rush seekers, this may be your calling card— all others, have ice cream instead.
